What Is Calendar Conflict?
A calendar conflict occurs when two events overlap or when a proposed booking falls inside time that is already unavailable.
A new interview request overlaps with an existing customer call on a connected calendar.
Why It Matters
Conflict checking is essential for presenting trustworthy availability and preventing double bookings.
How It Works
The scheduling workflow evaluates calendar information before presenting or confirming a time.
- Relevant calendars or events provide timing information.
- The system applies that information when calculating availability.
- Confirmed changes are reflected in the booking and connected calendar workflow.
Common Mistake
Checking only one calendar when work, personal, team, or resource calendars can all affect true availability.
Review the surrounding booking flow and make the expectation clear to both hosts and invitees.
